More quotes by America Ferrera
Paparazzi will sit outside my house to see where I'm going, and when they see it's the studio, they'll be like, This is boring, and drive off. But you'd never catch me dancing on tables in public. I have no desire to be known for my personal life.

I realized how Latina I was, and then also, at the same time, how not Latina enough I was, because I’m born and raised in Los Angeles. I speak Spanish, but I don’t speak perfect Spanish, not like a native speaker

I work really long hours and work a lot and have done press tours and junkets, but there is nothing like a presidential campaign that I have experienced before...I think at one point we visited three different cities in one state in 12 hours. It's exhausting.

I think Hispanic women are beautiful with their curves. I'm not sure who feels that way in Hollywood. I was never told to lose 50 pounds. If they think that they just don't bother with you.

Personally, I hate waiking the red carpet. You are expected to conform to every single expectation. People will say, Try as hard as you can not to sweat on the red carpet. Meanwhile you are super nervous, and there are tons of camera flashes, and people are screaming your name. It's not fun - not for me, at least!
America Ferrera
I hope to be acting until I'm playing the role of Grandma, and I'd like to branch out in film - producing, directing, all of it. I'll sleep when no one wants to hire me!
America Ferrera
Finding the one is not just a feeling, it's an educated guess. I feel like I chose someone to share my life with who is my friend.
America Ferrera
The most important thing you wear is your personality.
America Ferrera
I know that having the perfect body doesn't fix all your problems, or make you love yourself more. To me, it's all about being comfortable in your own skin.
America Ferrera
I was young not too long ago, and I know the last thing you want is someone preaching to you.
America Ferrera
I mean, I grew up in the Valley. All my friends were white Jewish kids. So the Latino kids thought I was this white girl.
America Ferrera
What's kind of wonderful about being the voice in an animated film is you're a small part of an enormous production. And in a way, you get to remain a little bit objective.
America Ferrera
I was just so lucky with 'Real Women Have Curves.' At that point, I would have done an insurance commercial. I would have done anything.
America Ferrera
I'm okay if people don't know who I am, but if you remember my character that would be great.
America Ferrera
You'll never see me at the launch of the new PlayStation or some club. For me, the fun stuff is being able to get my mom tickets to 'Dancing With the Stars' - she loves Mario Lopez.

Latino actors and actresses have had to struggle for decades, but when I came around with Real Women Have Curves, attitudes were starting to change. We screened the film all over the world - in Jewish communities, black communities, Greek communities, German communities - and people across the board said, That's my family.
America Ferrera
What’s hard about being on the other side of the world is that sometimes the problem feels so big that changing one life doesn’t feel like enough. But it is.
America Ferrera
I just wanted to see every single musical I could. The very first one I saw was 'Beauty and the Beast,' the only one I could get tickets for, and then 'Les Miserables' and then 'Chicago.
